Biography

edit

De Lépiau trained as a lawyer and is a member of the Bar of Carpentras. He was affiliated to the General Alliance against Racism and for Respect for French and Christian Identity (AGRIF) for a period.[1] An article in Le Monde described his religious and political beliefs as Catholic and liberal conservative.[2]

In the 2017 French legislative election he was selected to stand in Vaucluse's 3rd constituency after National Front representative Marion Maréchal stood down, but was defeated by Brune Poirson in the final round. During the 2022 French legislative election, he contested the seat again and defeated Poirson's replacement Adrien Morenas.[3][4]
